Sorry seems to be the hardest word: Tevez refuses to apologise to Fergie

Contrary to reports, the Man City striker says he didn’t offer an apology for unveiling the infamous banner.

CARLOS TEVEZ INSISTS he has no plans to personally apologise to Sir Alex Ferguson.

The striker was pictured with a sign saying ‘RIP Fergie’ during Manchester City’s parade after winning the Premier League title.

The striker was caught with the banner on an open-top bus on Monday, with the message said to be in response to Sir Alex’s claim that City would not surpass United in his lifetime.

City offered a prompt apology to the Scot and United, claiming Tevez ‘made a significant error of judgement’.

Tevez issued a general apology for his involvement but has since hit out at his former manager.

“It seems like Ferguson is the President of England,” Tevez told Ole.

“Because every time he speaks badly of a player or when he always talked rubbish about me, I never went out to say he had to apologise.

“When you mess up you should go out and apologise, but I do not apologise.”

The Argentine only recently returned to the first-team squad at City following a six-month exile in his homeland after allegedly refusing to come on as a substitute against Bayern Munich in the Champions League last September.
